Hi all,
I'm trying to mirror the linaro-android repository but I have some problems about the replicaisland repository.
To mirror, I have init the directory : repo init -u git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git --mirror
And sync : repo sync -j1
I tried to git clone directly replicaisland :
$ git clone git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/external/replicaisland Cloning into replicaisland... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Someone can confirm this problem please ?
Thanks for your patience while we worked on other urgent issues here. There're two notes I have regarding that issue:
1. I find it amusing that Google added an open source game to AOSP codebase. What would that mean - new devices would ship with Replica Island included? ;-). In either case, we fetch new projects from AOSP in manual manner, so thanks for the notice, platform/external/replicaisland is mirrored now.
2. Linaro Android tree is a proper superset of AOSP, i.e. we have intact AOSP which lives in its standard namespace (e.g. in master branch) and we have separate namespace for any Linaro changes - those are branches which start with 'linaro'. So, when you do
repo init -u git://android.git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git --mirror
you essentially mirror AOSP without our changes (because you use default.xml from the master branch). To mirror Linaro tree, you need to use for example "-b linaro_android_4.0.3" (the latest branch we're working on). You may also want to check what manifest you want to mirror, we have per-board manifests which include board-specific kernels and support components, you can see what's available in gitweb:

Thanks,
